Such a nice place with nice people.Amsterdam.

by geoffboxer - last update: May 15, 2006

me,Marin JB and 2 tourists
Ive now been going for thirty years.At first 1 or 2 times a year.Now at least 6 times a year.Only once went to a Coffee Shop and that was because I wanted coffee!!! Video hadnt been invented and the place was filled with porno cinemas. Saw Deep Throat at the Parissian(no longer there) in the Kelversttrat. It was a novelty in those days!!! Over the years have made many friends there and have my next week there in Feb 2004.

Next trip.. June 2006

Now starting to get a little excited about this trip.. as I get just that little older, I find myself doing less and less that is new and untried.

Thats not a problem in Amsterdam, especially if you have good friends there who are always glad to see you. So, looking forward to Sept 1st. Same Hotel, same Bars, same restaurants and same good friends .

Maybe even some new ones !!

Back again for New Years Eve !!!

Well it will be cold, but it wont be too bad in the Bars, Restaurants and Hotel !!! From what I can gather from the Tripadvisor site there is a meet planned of members of that forum. Whist Im not sure I can actually be at the meet, I hope to say hallo to many of those attending over the New Years period.

Several folks from USA and of course Piglet (Sarah) from Storbridge England. Hope to drift around Dam and Neiuemarkt on the night and should be in the Corso most nights and also Cornerhouse.

Watch out for the fireworks , !!!

 I only visited your profile on the promise of a CornerHouse tip :-( Great information - thanks, although I am still looking for the Cornerhouse tip :-)
